My Testimony: (We encourage members to share briefly about how their faith in Christ has impacted their lives.)
I became a Christian through the ministry of Young Life in the greater Washington, D.C. area and then was discipled at the University of North Dakota through Campus Crusade. My wife and I sensed a calling to teaching ministry and after doing seminary and serving as a youth pastor and solo pastor in Evangelical Free Churches, I eventually became a seminary professor and Christian mental health professional. God's been good to us!
Dream Job: (If you could have your dream job in the comics industry, what would it be?)
Too late for me in the comics industry! However, I love being an interdisciplinary kind of seminary teacher, ideally I'd totally focus on being "professor of theology and popular culture"!
Favorite Comic Creators:
Neil Gaiman Bill Willingham Mark Waid/Alex Ross Lee/Ditko/Kirby Kurt Busiek

Welcome to the CCAS. It is good to have you with us. May our gracious Lord and Savior continue to bless you and your family.
I'm located in the Monterrey Bay area of California, but I have a sister in Bellingham, Washington, so I'm well aware that you guys are having some heavy winter weather.
John,
Welcome to CCAS, brother! So glad to have here, despite the cold and wet that's wacking you guys in BC.
